This Is The World As It Is

14

This is the truth about the world today: not as it should be, or how it was taught to us in schools, but as it really is.

The 5 minute clip is from OBEY (2013), a film based on the book "Death of the Liberal Class" by journalist and Pulitzer prize winner, Chris Hedges. Watch the film online here. Watch more about capitalism's 'Sacrifice Zones'.

Hi there.

I bet you've seen some great "films for action" that aren't in our library yet. 

Why not add that documentary or video directly to our library? Half of our best content was added by members. Submissions just need to be non-fiction, embeddable (like from Youtube or Vimeo), and related to activism or changing the world in some way. 

Here are some more tips on adding videos. We'd love you to become a regular contributor! 

Cheers,
The Films For Action team
